The Vikings clearly made a fool out of them there was absolutely no interest from anyone else in that pick and they pretty much stole a 3rd rounder from the Browns

***EDIT***

They gave up a 4th, 5th and a 7th

Tampa bay May of had interest of trading with the vikings and taking Richardson.

That could all be a lie though

This secures our chance at getting Doug Martin a little bit more now since that will be one less team in the 20 range to go with him.

How is it a bad trade? The Browns had an abundance of picks, they drop off some later rounders to get their guy.

Tampa Bay had to be very interested. We will never know, but I don't think Holmgren would trade up if he wasn't absolutely positive.

We won't know until a few years from now if the Buccaneers release a statement confirming their interest.

The Browns have 13 picks I think (now 10)

I'm not gonna say I dislike that. I'm gonna say I'd rather one of the other 2 RBs at the end of the first even tough I would like to not take a RB in the first at all but if there's good value I won't mind too much
